Norm Lewis - If Only (Quartet) lyrics

Ariel: If only you could know The things I long to say If only I could tell you What I wish I could convey It's in my ev'ry glance My heart's an open book You'd see it all at once If only you would look If only you could glimpse The feeling that I feel If only you would notice What I'm dying to reveal The dreams I can't declare The needs I can't deny You'd understand them all If only you would try All my secrets, you would learn them All my longings, you'd return them Then the silence would be broken Not a word would need be spoken Prince Eric: What is it about her That's so wonderfully, impossibly familiar? Why do I feel dizzy In a way I've only felt but once before? How come when she looks at me It seems like time stops moving Almost like the way it did that day upon the shore? But that voice! Ariel: If only it were true If only for a while Eric: Ah, that voice! Ariel: If only you would notice How I ache beneath my smile Eric: Where's that voice? Ariel: I guess you never will I guess it doesn't show But if I never find a way to tell you so Oh, what I would give If only you could know Sebastian: (Spoken)Bless ya, child. Tomorrow, the Prince will have his pick of any princess in the land! How can a little mermaid Compete with that? If only I knew how I'd make him see the light If only it were up to me This all would turn out right And if I only could I'll tell you what I'd do I'd simply wave my claw And make your dreams come true And wouldn't that surprise you If you only knew King Triton: How could she just suddenly Completely disappear into thin water? It's been two whole days And I don't know where she has gone! Eric: Ah, that voice! King Triton: If only you'd come home... Sebastian: If only I could help... Eric: Where's that voice? Ariel: If only there were time I know we'd kiss at last Eric: That voice! King Triton: If only you'd come back I'll change my ways! Sebastian: Just one more day for that kiss to come... Ariel: But time keeps racing forward And our moment's almost pa**ed! King Triton: I'll try to understand... Ariel: It has to happen now... King Triton: I'll keep my temper low... Sebastian: I'd give my life up to make it happen... King Triton: I should have started listening to you all along... Eric: How I wish that girl could have been this one! Ariel: There's only one more day until I have to go! Eric: If only... Ariel, Sebastian & King Triton: Oh, what I would give if only you could know... Eric: And at the ball What will occur? Maybe I'll find that voice But I'll lose her... Ariel: If only... Sebastian: If only... King Triton: If only...
